Infected breast implants during lactation present a rare but challenging clinical scenario that may result in early cessation of breastfeeding and unnecessary morbidity to mother and infant. We present the case of a 39-year-old African American primigravid woman with a history of bilateral retropectoral textured implants placed three years prior. Five days after delivering a healthy, full-term infant via cesarean section, she sought evaluation for nipple pain and trauma. She was instructed to use a nipple shield and pump every 2–3 hours in addition to breastfeeding, which resulted in iatrogenic hyperlactation. One week postpartum, the patient was started on antibiotics for presumed mastitis. Ultrasound demonstrated a complex fluid collection at the 12 o’clock periareolar position, as well as peri-implant fluid. She subsequently underwent aspirations of a periareolar complex galactocele and aspirations of peri-implant fluid. She continued on antibiotics without improvement. The patient proceeded to implant removal and definitive drainage of the galactocele at four months postpartum. Throughout her course, the patient provided her infant with exclusive breastmilk, including breastfeeding in the perioperative area of the operating room. This case demonstrates an example of safe surgical removal of infected breast implants and management of an infected galactocele without interruption of breastfeeding.Hannah Kornfeld, MDArianne Johnson, PhDMarc Soares, MD, FACSKatrina Mitchell, MD, FACS, IBCLCWolters KluwerarticleSurgeryRD1-811ENPlastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open, Vol 9, Iss 11, p e3943 (2021) |
